IERE IE AE GAIN! AFT-R alapse of five weeks, we are again permitted to show-our faces to our anxious readers. - We hope that the time has been improved by our brother farmers in gather. ing the fine crops, which we -have been..so instrumental in making for them. We do not-here intend anything like self-praise as we know that our readers are sufficiently gen erous to award us our dues. We are, how. ever, vain enough to suppose, that there are many of our friends who are-glad to hear us spoit once-more upon topics of agricultural interest. , Although "CoULTEn & SCoOTE'R' have bad time to be taken to the blacksmith's and thoroughly sharpened, upset and pointed with steel, we are sorry to ,ay that we do not feel as sharp as we could wish, in order to-please the variety of-tastes of our numer ous readers. - We. trust, however, that. our wills are good, and that we will not fail al. together to afford some entertainment to those who are so inclined. WORK F01 THE MONTH. .THE most important of all is to sow wheat. Sow wheat, and a plenty of it. Prepare the land well by deep breaking up, then sow and plow in, and then harrow or brush in smooth. IT. Or sow the seed first, and then. a good manuring and plow both in well, and then cross plow in well, then harrow, then finish by giving a good rolling. "If a thing is wo-th -doing at all, it is worth 'doing well." The second is, to fatten every hog and pig you can, as soon as possible, and kill the first cold day and suitable weather. Fatten every old ox, cow and young.steer and veal that you can, for every thing that is good to eat, whether flour, hog and hominy, or beef, will sell. WHITE OATS. WE received a small quantity of this spe dies of Oats, a few days ago, from our friend and neighbor L JoHnsoX, to experi, ment upon. We return him our sincere thanks for the favor, and promise a faithful report of the experiment. Mr. 3. describes this oat as being a very excellent kind. It grows taller on thin land than any other oat known, often reaching to the height of eight feet. The straw is as good as that of any other kind, and yields an abundant crop of grain. Those who have seen it and are familiar with the different varieties of oats, pronounce it to be the Irish oat. We be lieve that Mr. 3. procured the seed in Florida. Those wishing to procure this variety of seed oats can probably be furnished with them- by Mr. 3oHnssos. .- SWEET POTATQES. A friend, who is "some" in the raising of this invaluable article of food for man and beast; recommends, that the seed should al ways be procured from the vine, and not from the slips or draws, as is generally done. Alhs plan is to eazt the vines from l'he beds ind plant them oat in July or August, for s aed; dig them and bank them and bed themi out in the spring, then draw the slips from *hem and plant for the crop..- He states that lrgerand finer potatoes can be raised by aii method than any other that he hasp ever tried. -BACON!

AOREEABLE to appointment our District Society -on the first .of October held 'a meet ing in the Court;House -but,- owing to the 39ssion of the Court of Common Pleas, a - very limited space of time -was allowed- for th, transaction of business. The Constlit - tion wvas however adopted, delegates to the State Agricultural Society appointed,-and a few gentleuten enrolled their names upon th-e books. :.. - -The next meeting of the Society was ap pointed to be~on the first Monday in Novem ber next. We cannot forbear to appeal 6nce alore -to our brother farmers in behalf of this 'noble effort to raise the standard of agricul lture in our District. We cannot believe thiat our farmers are so destitutQ of. intelligence and public spirit, as to remiain indifferent to *the success of this enterprise.- Nor do we believe that they will. Yet it ise matter of no lttlr surprise'to us that they are so tardy, so reutant to fall into ranks, and so hard to be persuaded, that it is to their advantage to do so. THE UMBP lE, WE hope our readers will read attentiyely the remarks of our cortespondent-"FARX. ER," upon the Oregon Pea. "FARMER," makes a plain unvarnished statement of facts with regard to the cultivation and success of this pea which is so generally believed to be a "humbug." It is too often the casethat, when a new variety of any of the .crops, whether of grain. or cotton, is introduced to the notice of planters, that the mere opinion of the incredulous brands it as a humbug, when the practical experiments of more solid men are entirely disregarded. Those. who are unwilling to give themselves the trouble of the experiment necessary to test the value of any pew variety, are, too often, first to cry humbug ! h1niunig! ! Facts alone'can be relied on, and "FARM ER" has-as all honest men should do given us the facts upon 'whicl is founded his opinion of the Oregon pea. . - BLACI BLAST IN OATS. THE Oat crop is.one of great value to the farmer, and as all oat-crops are more or less injured by the blast, it may be interesting to, our readers, to learn how this disease may be prevented. As to the. cause 'and, origin of the blast we know nothing but what we have learned from the various speculations of those men, who give to their brethren the benefit of their experience abd researches in agricultural science. Such. is the ingrati tude of the human' heart, that such 'men are too often sneered at for their benevolent in tentions and their humble efforts to enlighten and beneft their brother farmers,-are ridi culed as the humbuggery of book farming. Whatever may be'the cause of blast, we all know that the injury, sustained by the oat crop from its pernicious effects, amounts to a large proportion of the yield of grain, and a great injury to the straw as rough food for stock. If the oat crop is so. materially in jured by. blast, its prevention is a very im portant'matter, and should engage the atten tion of farmers. We were informed a few days since, by a very successful farmer, of a simple remedy for the blast, and as -it has been tried and experimented upon, and proved effectual, we recommend it to our readers as a. valuable recipe. Soak for twenty-four hours your oat seed in a solution of Blue Stone, the same as for smut in wheat. "Try all things and hold fast to that which is good." " ROG-RANGES." "WuEN in the course of uman events" farmers are compelled to give .fifteen ceiits for bacon, or starve, we will not find it diffi. cult to direct their .attention to -any. article ,or essay, which hioldsout the slightest pros. pect for information upon the absorbing topic--BAoY. Many, we doubt not, who are nowv paying the feecing price for bacon, are already look. ing ahead with fixed determinations never to be caught in the same folly ; while they are Casting. " long, lingering looks behind" at what they might have done in the way of making their own bacon, in years gone by. Experience is a god teacher, but alas! how many forget to improve or practice their lessons until .chastened by necessity. To those. who repent their past folly and wish to reform for the future, we recommend the following, which 'we clip from the Central Georgian. HOG RANGES. When you speak to a-cotton planter about raising his own meat, and enough to supply his, doctor, merchant, blacksmith, &c., he will, without hesitation tell you that it will not pay. Hie can make more by planting cotton, even if he has to buy his own meat, or the greater part of it. This we admit is true, wvhen cotton ranges at better prices than at present, provided he has to feed.his hogs exclusively on corn and peas. .But we do not admit the' necessity of this process of making. bacon. There is a much cheaper process than this opened* to all the planters of this country, and -a better one thau to make-cotton, and pay freight to Savannah, and then pay freight on hogs from'Tendes see. Some of our cotton planters h'ave long since got a partial insight into this plan, and the result has been that they are much bet ter off than those who buy their own bacon. The* most thrifty planters in Hancock, are those who raise their own flour and pork,.at the 'risk 9f raising less cotton, and yet there .is a -plan by which they can raise it much cheaper than they do. Every farmer should have- a hog .range attached to his farm. It should have a good stream if running water, and might-emibrace from ten to one hundred acres, according to the amount of pork to be raised. The major part should be a forest which would answer the double purpose of raising timber for wood and acorns for, your hogs. 'All the undergrowth should be cut out and burned. The dead trees cut down and split for wood and rails, as well as all the thick growth of saplings, pines, gums, dogwoods, anid in fact all but oak, hickories, walnuts, mulber ries, persimmons? &c. The oaks. should not stand thick, but let in..plenty of air and sun, and they will bear much better. One oak standing. thus isolated will bear as much as a half a dozen crowded.. Particular at tention should be paid to persimmon trees, in saving all that might bear'. They 'will prove or immense value. Now for the orchard part. .As many as you please. Plant plum trees that will ripen in May, June and July and somn oven later, in squares six feet each wva,amd' thg wili soon over the ground.' Set ont poach trees tenfeet each way, of such kinds as'-will ripen from .June to October, and (fy and plow them twice a year if possible, and 'you will have fruit that will gladden the heart of a por-ker-. Farmers .who will begin this fall by transplanting all'the volunteer peach trees about their premises will, in three years, have 'a ie orchard for their hogs. With such a hog range, the farmer would have but little need to make drafts upon his rib, only in quantities to keep his hogs tame. The acorns; hickory nuts, &d., woulk keep them during the winter and spring, and peaches, with the 'gleaning of 'the -oat and wheat fields, *rduld keep them till falL Then the pea crop and the persimmons would bring them up to acorn time again. Pota toes,.ground peas, turnips, mulberries, black berries, muscadines, &c., would help, and the result would be, instead of sendinag off bndeds annually to Kentucky and Ten.. hessee for pork, it would return into your own pockets in various ways. You would not only save your-bacon, but you would -in crease the value of your farm, the amount of such a farm, with no such appendage. Who will try itI Fu the Advertiser. OREGON A. Mysu5 Enrrons :-.."Humbug," cries one;-" Wont do," cries anothe;-" No, I'll be blamed if it will,"-.cries a third.- Such are the expressions I hear uttered- whenever the Oregon Pea is mentioned ; but-these peo ple know nothing about the Oregon pea they have never tried it, and their decision is, thefore, not to be depended-on. - The Oregon Pea is doing better with me this year than any other kind, and -i. have three other kinds- planted, all having an equal chance with the Oregon. Whilst the other kinds are taming yellow and shedding .their leaves, the Oregon is green, flourishing, broad-spreading and literally bowed down with fruit. I have now one of the best pas tures I ever saw, from the Oregon pea, planted about the first of June in a corn field, which had only one plowing and one hoeing after the peas were planted. And I hive the Georgia black pea-one of the best bearers I have ever tried--planted on good land and having in every respect an equal chance with the Oregon, which presents quite a poor prospect for a pasture.. "Talk enough," gentlemen, FARMER; Higgins' Ferry, Sept. 27, 1855. For the Advertiser. Mass. Eurroas:-Your brother of the "Inner Temple," had something to say, a week or two ago, about some large ears of corn that somebody. had sent him from some.. where. He said that one ear contained 1200 grains, which is certainly a pretty large ear; but, 'if I am not greatly mistaken, I have counted over 1300 grains on one ear, though not this year. Enclosed I send you a few grains of a kind, of which one grain this year produced _3,200! I consider- that a wonderful yield and hard to beat, and I hereby challenge your brother to beat it. He may go to the "Red river bottoms," if he likes. A few grains of this corn was sent to me in a letter from the North, last winter, where they raise it for bread; but I don't think it " will do well here-it is too far South for it. The grain is so soft and floury that the we vii gets into it before'it is ripe. FARMER. Higgins' Ferry, Oct. 4, 1855. REMARKs:-We are under many obliga tions to "FARMER" for the seed be has been kind enough to send us and we will try and keep themn upon file for the next planting time. 'I he speciinen sent, we judge to be identical with the variety which was adver tised by some one in Alabama at a' cent a grain, which was wvarranted to yield from ix to -eight ears to the hill, or the same amount from each grain. We verily thought that it was a lwmbug; but we have since seen it growing at Col. H UIET's, and it has, so far, fully come up to the representations made by the grower. As to its softness and liability to be destroyed by wevils "FAEXWn" may be correct; but even this defect might .be obviated by mixing or drossing it with our flint varieties. It is possible that our climate might have the effect of hardening the grain ; if so, we would prefer planting it to itself, in order to retain its prolific qualities. IIlJIES, TREIR PRICES, .&c. TnlE exorbitant prices demanded by our Kentucky neighbors, for mules for the- last fewv years has become a subject for serious consideration to every Southern planter. Every year the price of mules rises without any regard to the price of cotton. I saw a fine gang of mules a few days since passing through the country, picked out a good look ing one and asked the price-two hundr-ed dollars--can planters afford to use mules at two hundred dollars! I think not, and it becomes them to look around for a remedy or substitute. . In order to remedy the evil it is only ne cessary for each planter in the gtate to raise a mule every year-lu three years the demand for mules here would totally cease except for a fewv large planters-I have resolved for one to commence the system-a friend who has made the experiment,.and who has . a fine team of Georgia raised mules, informs me that they did not cost him up to two years old, more than it would cost to raise and fatten a two year old hog. He assures me that they are more haiy, equally active, and stand' the climaste better than the Ken tucky ule. The system of forcing niules forward by every means that can. be devised so as to at tain an unnatural size, has rendered the Ken. tucky much less set-viceable than formerly. They are brought to market at two or three year old, placed immediately at hard work and either die premature, or become too slow for the plow. In a few years their places must be supplied; these go through the same 'process and with the same result. How long can this game be played, where the planter is always the loser, it becomes us all to con sider. Again, I propose. the horse as a substititte for the mule, or rather. to restore the horse to the position from which-he has been driv en. I am aware that for the rough usage of negroes and for the wagon, mules are regard ed as preferable. BItt for this rough usage there is no necessity,~and in these days of railroads the amount of wagoning done by the farm mules is comparatively small and for those planters who reside on their farms, or whose plow team is sometimes forced to do duty in the carriage or buggy, there is no excuse for using a mule. Indeed I have looked with amazement on the number of muales now used iii buggys and. pleasure carriages, and when I have seen a fine car riage filled with pretty girls and the farmer's wife, drawn through the streets by a pair of' braying muls, I have- regarded'him asg a fit subject for a commission of lunacy. But in dependently of the looks, a Georgia ralsed horse which is accustomed to. thre climate, and has been raised-on the scraps, is as good as a mule any where. He will do. mote plowing, will pull more in a wagon, and then is better than a miule to ride to church-per haps I ought to have said drie to church; for in this age every body, overseers, emn ployers and all, fide in buggies.. But an irresistable argument in favor of the use of the horse, is the fact that if the exclusive use of mules for all work continue much longe, te breed of honrses and rmles will be lost. It is to this cause-the that with the male his r$ce stops-tha high price of mules is now mainly attril ble. If the system cont' , the scarci brood mares will conti istill more t felt, the fewermules can be raised, and h prices must continue to rise. A retor the use of horses will in a great degree rent the evil and to this subject I would the attention of every intelligent planter, not wait for others to begin in this won reformation, act yourself and others will low your example.-Soil oPthe South.

ALL. of our commonly cultivated I are composed of precisely the same elen the only chemical difference betweer vast variety of plants being the relative portions in which the same elements un form the plant ; so that if a soil will pr< any one of our cultivated crops it post the capacity, so fares the elements of 1 are concerned, of growing any other cr some extent. In judging of the best ki plants to be cultivated on any particular therefore, we have to look to the re proportions in which the elements ofi exist in the soil, and adopt that ch plants which requires most of the parti ele'ments in which the sjoil abounds, c quiresi least of thosein which it is deS This would seeti to'be a common sense of the subject, yet there'-are many othe cumstences, often overlooked, whbieh, ii sidered, would materially affect our oc sions. In a large crdjiroIgorn there a the elements which atlarge crop of contains, and also in larger quantities there are thousands of acres of land produce immense crops of corn that ci be profitably oultivated~ith whent. A wheat soil will always produce a good of corn, if properly tilled, while muchc best corn land will not produce wheat ordinary culture. The cause 'of this difference is not, we have shown, owi a deficiency in the sel of any elemeht wheat plant, for the requirements of the crop are identical in kind and great quantity than that of wheat. It must, I fore, be owing either to the manner in the various elements are assimilated b: plant, or the existence in the soil of substance, wvhich though sufficient, it exist in a corn crop soil for the aetui mands of the wheat crop, yet from thed ent habits of the two plants, a much 1 quantity may ho necessary for the per ance of the healthy functions of the v than the corn plant. This substance is probably clay ; for all soils, whlich exper proves to be the best adppted to wheal ture, abound with this substance and ..he reason why clay is so much mor cessary and beneficial for wheat that cbrn, is not clearly understood. In light soil -the wheat plant is foni throwv out its lateral roots very near the face, while in a elayey or heavy soil more inclined to tap, and the lateral, fit roots are at a greater depth. In the fc case-the plant wouldhbe more likely to lI out -in the spring, while in the latter it t he better able to stand the vicissitudi cold and heat, from the roots being greater depth, and having a firmer hold < soil, It is therefore probable that oneC benefits which the wheat plant derives clay, is its preventing the extension of SI surface roots, and forcing the plant to out a sitngle tap root, which descends deeper and takes a firmer hold of the sc Genesee Farmer.
